During July, the production department of a process operations system completed and transferred to finished goods 24,000 units that were in process at the beginning of July and 72,000 that were started and completed in July. July's beginning inventory units were 100% complete with respect to materials and 30% complete with respect to labor. At the end of July, 29,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 100% complete with respect to materials and 35% complete with respect to labor. The beginning inventory included labor cost of $52,400 and the production department incurred direct labor cost of $451,250 during July. Compute the direct labor cost per equivalent unit for the department using the weighted-average method.

the direct labor cost per equivalent unit for the department is $4.74 per unit

Explanation:

The computation of the direct labor cost per equivalent unit for the department is given below:

Equivalent units for direct labor cost is

= 24,000 unit + 72,000 units + 35% of 29,000

= 24,000 units + 72,000 units + 10,150 units

= 106,150 units

Now the direct cost per equivalent unit is

= ($52,400 + $451,250) ÷ 106,150 units

= $4.74 per unit

Hence, the direct labor cost per equivalent unit for the department is $4.74 per unit

hi,

henry is an economist and wants to understand the relationship between inflation and consumer spending habits. for his research, he needs the consumer price index for 2014 and the inflation rate. based on the prices of goods given, what will he find to be the cpi and inflation rate for 2014? assume that a consumer’s basket for three consecutive years consists of the following:

you dont privide answer choices.

answer - 15% of a inflatation rate is 15% less in cpi

answer(d) the growth of consumption is likely to remain sluggish even as the economy begins to recover.;
